DEATH IN THE WATER.
Ls the Element We Drink DecimGting
= the People!
Now a Universal Menace to Health may
be Disarmed.

a few years ego the people il a certain
section il one Of the leading cities ofthe
state were Frustrated with malignant
disease, and upon investigation it swas
found that only those who used water
from & famous old well were the victims.
Prof. S. A. baltimore, analyst of the
New YORK State Board of Health, upon
aneIyzing water from this well, found It
more deadly han The city sewage,
The filling of TIE old well stopped the
ravages Of the disease.
Not long since the writer noticed while
some men we're making an excavation Tor
large building, stratum Of dara
colorCd earth running from near the sur
face 20 hard pan. There it took another
course toward 8 well near at hand. The
water from this well mad for years been
tainted with the DRAWINGS from receiv-
ing vault, the perCoIatiOnS Of which had
discOluEed the earth!
Terrible,
/ similar condition of things exists in
every village and city where well water
is used, and though the filtering which
the fluids receive IN passing through the
earth may give them g clear appearance,
vet tile poison and disease remains,
though the water may look never so
clear.
It is still worse with the farmer, for
the drainage from the barn yard and the
Stops from the kitchen eventually find
their way into the family well.
The same condition of things exist in
our large cities, whose water supplies
are rivers fed Dy little streams that carry
of the filth and drainage from houses.
This "water7' is eventually drunk by rich
and poor alike with great evil.
Some cautious people. resort TO the
litter for purifying this water, but even
the filter does not remove this poison,
for water OF the most deadly character
may pass through this filter and become
clear, yet the poison disguised is there.
They WHO use filters know that they
must be renewed at regular periods, for
even though they DO not take out all the
impurity, they soon become foul.
Now in ike manner the human kidneys
act as filter for the blood, and # they
are filled up with Impurities and become
foul, Ike The filter, all the blood in the
system coursirE through them becomes
bad, for il IS now q conceded fact that
the Kidneys are The cAiet means whereby

drainage produce so many fatal disorders.
Kidney disease may be known to exist
